Looking for an easy to use Year 1 Spring Poem reading comprehension? Then this Spring is in the Air reading activity is for you.

This resource contains a poem about the changes that occur in the season of spring, and, alongside the poem, there is a variety of comprehension questions covering all five reading content domains. We've also included some more in-depth questions for more detailed written answers.

With our reading skills resources, you have the flexibility to decide how to use the text and the questions: you can give the whole text and all of the questions, target questions for specific domains, or go page by page using only questions that are related to that part of the text. We've also included a time-saving answer matrix to make marking easier and for making self or peer marking more accessible.
